Well...measurements still about the same. Weight still about the same.
Yesterday's email encouragement was about weight loss vs. fat loss. Society expects large numbers of pounds lost, so I am supposed to re-adjust my mindset. It's not about pounds. So, my goal of 150 pounds may never be met. Fat loss and heavy weight lifting will result in fat loss, not muscle loss. Fat weighs less than muscle, so the scale will not reflect the truth.
According to the fat calculations, fat loss is at just over 6 pounds in 8 weeks.
I have to stay focused on this. I feel better and do not have to count every calorie...and I"m not starving.
No diet or weight loss program has ever done this for me. I have to believe what the ME experts are saying and change 30 years of thinking wrongly about weight loss. The scale is not my friend. Pounds are not going to tell the facts. Only fat loss, which is down from just over 41% on January 1 to around 38%. And, evening readings (which are supposed to be more accurate) have made a decline in just a few weeks from 38% to 35%. Progress!!!
Not the progress I expected or planned...so I have to change my "goal" from 150 pounds to something else. Maybe a size 10 or 12??? Not sure yet.
